2 bed Flat For Sale £550,000
This two-bedroom top-floor apartment has been beautifully renovated to celebrate its hints of post-modernism. Set around a circular spiral stairwell, the apartment’s geometric layout is focused towards a wide roof terrace punctuated by blue steel pillars, which stretches across the façade. Exquisitely finished with Italian tiles, rubber floors, and lighting, the apartment has a fresh contemporary feel and is characterised by the swathes of natural light drawn in by its huge windows. Deptford High Street sits below with its array of cafes and bars and daily market. Deptford Creek and the Thames path are a short walk away.
The Tour
The apartment sits within the Deptford High Street and St Paul's Conservation area characterised by its beautifully preserved 18th-century architecture. Inside a striking spiral staircase ascends through the building, its rounded shape absorbed into the penthouse apartment’s layout, establishing an unusual plan set around this clean curve.
Entry is to a bright hallway, where a large window sits in a recess that could easily be used as a workspace. To the right of the door is the main living space. The kitchen lies to the side, defined by the citric pop of orange Italian tiles. Crisp white walls, dotted rubber floors and aluminium window frames make for a fresh and minimalist room. The room's focal point is the large west-facing terrace at the front, which can be accessed through a pivoting window. Overhead, mid-century light fixtures by acclaimed Italian designers Vico Magistretti and Michele de Lucchi adorn the ceiling and walls.
On the other side of the apartment are two bedrooms and a bathroom. A generous double bedroom, currently configured as an office, overlooks the terrace, which can be accessed through another large window. A second bedroom sits at the rear of the plan; a good-sized double, the room is illuminated by two wooden framed sash windows with view toward St Paul's Deptford.
Positioned in between both bedrooms is the characterful bathroom. Wrapped in bright blue tiles and finished with Phillipe Starck fixtures and fittings, this room is refreshing, adding a pop of colour to the apartment. There is a loft above the apartment providing plenty of additional storage space.
Outdoor Space
A large terrace spans the entire width of the apartment and is the perfect vantage point to enjoy the sunset over south London. Finished underfoot with rubber tiles, there is plenty of space for a table and chairs, and there are bountiful planters, which thrive in the south-westerly sun.
The Area
Perched above Deptford High Street, the apartment is less than a five-minute walk from the thriving Deptford Market, joined in recent years by a new wave of establishments, including Buster Mantis, a bar renowned for its famous Steam Down jazz nights; Winemakers Deptford, an exceptional natural wine bar and shop, serving great European cooking from its small kitchen; Forest for all houseplant related needs and Marcella (sister restaurant to Artusi in Peckham) for excellent homemade pasta and seasonal Italian cuisine.
The Thames path is just a 5-minute walk away, along with Deptford Creek offering galleries, cafes and restaurants on the waterfront, including Gaff, Little Faith, A.P.T Studios, and the Laban Theatre.
Deptford Station is a five-minute walk away, running mainline services into London Bridge in just six minutes. New Cross and New Cross Gate stations are within a five and a 15-minute walk, respectively, running London Overground services directly to Shoreditch, Dalston and Highbury & Islington.
